Linda Hogan stopped by The Today Show this morning to discuss her new book “Wrestling the Hulk: My Life Against the Ropes” with morning time stud muffin Matt Lauer. In the book, Linda claims that she constantly feared her husband, Hulk Hogan, because of the mood swings he’d experience from mixing prescription pain killers with steroids, or as wrestlers call it – breakfast.

“He did not feel remorse — and to this day he’s never apologized for any of his actions — but that is something that scared me,” she sail (ed. – Come on, copy editors!). “I did not want to be a statistic like Nicole (Brown) Simpson.”

“I was afraid to say anything,” she revealed. “Had I said something, the carpet would have been pulled up from underneath his career. I don’t know what my kids would have done. They were little at the time. It’s scary. It’s a very scary position. You don’t know how far they’re going to go. One fight can escalate and turn into something you don’t want.” (Via)

Nicole Brown Simpson is a bad example because she was killed by random assailants, who were scared off when her ex-husband, O.J. Simpson, just happened to stop by her place. Sure, O.J. could probably tell you how he would have done it, but it’s completely unrelated. Now, Nancy Benoit would have been a much better example.
